No article entering 50 generally into the food
of every family has been found more villainously
adulterated than baking powder. For the pur-
pose OF undertaking those powders of absolute
purity and wholesomeness which alone are safe
for use in food, hundreds of dealers are putting
up baking powders with cheap and adulterated
cream OF tartar, which contains lime, earth,
etc. adding strength by the free use of alum.
These adulterated powders are showed upon
the public with the greatest persstency. Many
are given away-left in samples at private resi-
dences with circulars containing bogus analysis
and certificates and false representations as to
their value, etc. The worst of them are intro
duced to the house keepers attention by fraudu-
lent tricks or by bogus samples, the articles
when purchased being found to be entirely dit
ferent from the sample shown The fact that a
powder is sampled from door to door is sufficient
TO condemn it. A frst-class article will sell on
its merits. No manufacturer whose goods are of
value can afford 10 give them away, or 10 test
them from door TO door, and none but the cheap

sonlng from the use of such samples are recorded

COLUMBUS. Ga. January 1s.-[Special The
projectors of the Columbus and Florida railroad
held meeting this evening and authorized Mr..
G. Gunby Jordan to go to New York, in the in
terest of the enterprise. Mr.. Jordan will leave
Tomorrow.
We .6nd this dispatch in the Atlanta
Constitution of the goth. Mr.. Jordan
was successful when he went to NewYork
in the interest Of the Georgia Midland
and Gulf, and it may be presumed that he
will be successful in behalf of the Colum-
bus and Florida, which is next of kin
that is, if he goes as he did before and
not with empty hands. As to how he
went equipped on that mission we learn
from the Columbus Enquirer-Sun of the
oath:
This finds illustration in the Georgia Midland
and Gulf railroad. Every dollar, so to speak,
that has been invested in the building of this en-
terprise has been furnished by northern capital
isis. Mr.. Jordan Las very Justly been highly
complmented on the success he has had in the
construction of this road, but he will tell you
that the greatest part of his success in rails
ing $15OOOO from his home people with which
to meet the men who had the money Had he
gone to them empty handed he would have re-
turned empty handed. But he did not. 1t is
probable that no man In the State could have
met with such signal success but all his success
hinged upon starring right.
The above quotation is from an article
urging the establishment of more cotton
factories in Columbus, but it is to the
point as illustrating the manner in which
Leon county must go to Columbus if we
would have the road enter our borders

The principal powers of continental
Europe continue to prepare for war, and
the very magnitude Of their preparations
is, perhaps, the best reason for thinking
that no war viii occur. The dangers of
collision are too apparent not to appall
even the most cold-blooded statesman,
and the most ardent patriot, when they
contemplate the conflict of millions of
trained men armed with the best-killing
implements of death. The shock of such
forces as now constitute the armies of
Germany, France, Russia and Austria
would be mutual pulverization, a grind
ing together of irresistible antago nisms-
irresistible as long as one might endure
against the other in the struggle of reci-
procal destruction. The powers named
could bring five or six million men into
the field, and with improved weapons and
new methods of slaughter, they could
quickly accomplish such wholesale car
mage as the world has not witnessed. 1t
might be expected that the terrific agency
of dynamite, and other forces as deadly,
would be invoked to accomplish mans
inhumanity to man in the most wholesale
manner, and pile up hecatombs of the inn
ages of their Maker as monuments
to the progress of civilization in the
dreadful department of military
science. Malignant ingenuity is busted
in secret work in the arsenals Of
the governments, and if their troops
meet, each may be expected to astonish
the others with strange devices for mutual
butchery. Imagine, for instance, the
effect of dynamite shells many times
larger than the bombs of the anarchists
falling thickly among masses of troops,
SCATTERING crowded fortresses and heav-
lily manned war ships. This imagining
can be done, but we don't believe there
will be any war-at least until necessity
absolutely compels what is now merely
threatened from motives of national pol
icy. The game is too bloody, each OF the
powers knows the other to be dangerous,
tones afeGrd and the other durs' :"
and wholesome apprehension may long de-
lay the calamity of war. This disappoints
the rest of the world, which wants war
news, red, terrific war news; wants to see
the grand, exciting spectacle of struggling
millions Staying each other. In this the
modern world is the ancient world that
crowded about the arena of the gladia-
tors to see them butchered to make a
Roman holiday"

Leon County Hay.

In putting in bis oat crop last season be fer
tllzed, plowed and narrowed the land. Late
in May he cut his oat crop, which yielded sixty
bushels to the acre. AS soon as the oat crop VS.
out of the way he plowed the land well, eros
narrowed it, and waited for the grass TO spring
up. In due time the grass appeared with some
weeds. The weeds were cut down with
scythe, and thus the grass got the start of weeds
and maintained the advantage to the end
When haying time came Mr. Donk moved
from one to three tons OF crow-foot grass to The
acre, and now he is hauling that hay to Talaha
see, and selling it for twenty dollars ton. TIE
hay is we'll cured, and looks as bright and clean
as any hay We ever saw In cutting the grss
Mr. Donk never allowed it to remain 90 The

Instead of fighting grass all summer, Mr.
Donk has utilized it as" money crop" and thus

The Fisheries Ouestion.

There was considerable war talk in the
Senate on the oath in the discussion of
the bill authorizing the President to in
stitute retaliatory measures in protection
of the rights of American citizens in the
fishing business off the coast of Canada.
The bill was passed by a vote of 46 yeas
to nay, and vests in the President dis
cretionary power to declare a commercial
embargo, and it was argued that this was
likely to bring on war if enforced, and
war with Great Britain would be ca
lamitous beyond computation to the Uni
ted States. AS it would also be calami-
tous to Great Britain it was believed that
with the power conferred By the bill in
the Presidents hands the diplomatic me-
gotiations now in progress would bring
the differences between the two govern
ments to peaceful and favorable solution.
1t was stated tha in the matter of dis
pute our Minister in England chad been
true to his country and has asserted the
full measure Of the rights of the Ameri-
p~vri> "vU v.ny vi Jnelr rights, but
of the national honor" 1t was admitted
that England was not without some pre-
tense of right in her construction of the
treaty under which the Canadian author
tiles used violent measures last season to-
ward American fishermen, for under that
treaty they could not procure bait in
Canadian bays and harbors, being only
allowed to enter them for shelter, repairs
for water, or to purchase wood.
